They say that it's some step forward in biotech but, really, he's just putting a camera into his fake eye. It's like a guy with a prosthetic arm getting a flamethrower installed into it. Well, maybe that one hasn't happened........yet.

Maybe that's why they just want to nudge it out of the way. When all else fails, though, they can just use a Tok'ra shuttle to encompass the asteroid in a hyperspace bubble and jump it through the planet.

Naming that thing Apophis doesn't even make any sense. Did they do it cause it sounded cool? I mean, in what way does that asteroid represent the Egyptian god that was the enemy of Ra? I mean really.

And speaking of asteroids, I'm watching this thing on the History channel about impact craters, in particular, they were talking about the one in Arizona. It's amazing how much things have changed; I can remember "learning" when I was in school, that when that the asteroid hit, the rock itself buried deep into the Earth. But apparently, that "fact", that I learned in school was indeed just a theory. There's scientific evidence now, that when an asteroid strikes, it does so with such force, that it actually disintegrates, leaving very little trace of the original asteroid.

Pretty cool. And odd that I happened across a show about asteroids at this specific time. ;)
